This has been sitting in my archives far too long. I wax nostalgic about my feelings for the first season of WKRP in Cincinnati.

Luckily, it did not go as horribly wrong as it could have.

I be eyeing a Whit Bissell deep dive.
From the Archive: To The Devil A Daughter (1976)
In the video archive today, Kim ventures into some "Nun" horror with the out of left field 1976 film, To The Devil a Daughter. I am obligated to continue my Richard Widmark completion quest.
John Gavin stares at his hands as he sits with Vera Miles.
Did I know that I needed John Gavin in The Virginian using a French accent that sounded like a cross between Maurice Chevalier and the French taunting in Monty Python?
I did not.
Then there’s co-starring with Vera Miles and using a location that I’d lay money was Bates Motel adjacent.
PPC Rabbit Hole: Clu Gulager
I’m guilty of diving down rabbit holes. I jump down fast, hard and there’s been many times when I haven’t come up for air until I’ve finished an entire filmography. There was that one time where I watched all of Roger Corman’s work in the span of a few months. That’s…
Kim’s Letterboxd favorites including: The Changeling, House on Haunted Hill, Ghost Story and The Creature from the Black Lagoon. Recent activity including: The Cat Creature, The Stunt Man, The Savage 7 and Hells Angels on Wheels.
New favorites on Letterboxd because… who are we kidding. I was due.
Also a look see at the viewing for the week as I show myself a good time. Not pictured is “The Hard Ride” which I found a flipping delight.
Embarrassing classic tv revelation incoming. I’ve been watching Laramie this morning for the first time and wondering why Robert Crawford Jr. is reminding me so much of Johnny Crawford from The Rifleman.
They’re brothers.

And it continues.
Video Archive: With Six You Get Eggroll (1968)
Kim's continuing with a look at Doris Day career today and the actress' final film, With Six You Get Eggroll.
I am watching so much of Mariette Hartley’s work by pure coincidence this year.
If Letterboxd tracked tv, I bet she’d be right on William Smith’s heels for my most viewed in 2025.
Now watching McCloud (S5e7)
The voices of Rocky and Bullwinkle — June Foray #BOTD and Bill Scott.
‘We received the script when we arrived at the studio...We’d read it once and then record,” Foray said. “We never ad-libbed, ever! Because they were so brilliantly written.” #Cartoons
Shudder just added BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1935) to a stellar collection of 200+ pre-2000 horror titles, stretching all the way back to the silent era.
No ads is a big plus too. #FilmSky #Halloween
The New Beverly is out here reminding me that I need to watch They Live again.

As such I’d like to hear folks’ underappreciated Redford recommendations. I’ve seen a lot of the big ones but I’d like to catch up on some unsung gems
It’s here! SEASON XIII - that’s 13. Unlucky for some? But not YOU! Look what delights await your ears…

In our next installment of “That Is Quite The Headline”.
My deep dive into women behind the camera in classic westerns continues.
What Robert Redford contributed to American films via Sundance is genuinely immeasurable. He was also an extraordinarily talented director--Ordinary People and Quiz Show are two of the best American studio movies of their eras--and an actor who somehow wore his incredible charisma almost shyly. RIP.

Robert Redford sits with Roberta Shore. They wear western clothes.
One of my most recent (and favorite) classic TV Leo moments. Not realizing a baby Robert Redford was in an episode of The Virginian I was watching before it clicked in my brain instantaneously.

Robert Redford as Death in "Nothing in the Dark"
Man, Robert Redford. RIP. A legend. And someone who's come up several times in my Rod Serling bio research. He starred in the very last episode of Playhouse 90, "In the Presence of Mine Enemies," and played Death in a beautiful Twilight Zone episode, "Nothing in the Dark."
16.09.2025 13:02 — 👍 532 🔁 72 💬 15 📌 12I’m trying to think of my Robert Redford awakening. I remember seeing The Horse Whisperer in theaters. I was 11 or 12, but even then I knew he was special. He’s one of those actors who has always been in my conscience. It’s hard to put words behind a career like that. RIP.

How is this not an F-Troop crossover?
(She asks having watched 2 minutes of the episode so far, not knowing context).
